Hey, Bar, maybe you should just give up on your novel about the Cathars and write one about me instead. You've already got it about 75 percent done anyway. And I'll bet nothing you could come up with about the Cathars would be anywhere near as imaginative.
(Of course, it's a disadvantage that in my case there's a detailed, up-to-date historical record to contrast with the fiction you've written, so you'll need to go through everything you've done so far and disguise the details of my actual identity to make it impossible to check.) Now, if I decided to write a strictly accurate nonfiction book about you, everybody would think it was a novel. Except the folks who read FFL and saw it all with their own eyes... --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, TurquoiseB <no_re...@...> wrote: > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, cardemaister <no_reply@> wrote: > > > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, TurquoiseB <no_reply@> wrote: > > > > > > This made my week.
